- panels are sized to cooperatively engage with the window frames around a window
- the hanging panels are also
- Such hanging panels are conventionally supported by a rolling support assembly in
- each panel typically has two wheels attached to axles
- channel typically consist of carriages fitted with vertical wheels set parallel to the channel
- carriage assembly engaged in the overhead channel are parallel to the channel center axis.
- the device alleviates the wheel angle to panel
- the device provides this utility by setting the carriage wheels of the

- Figure 10 is an end view of the device as depicted in figure 1 showing a door mounted to the pivot assembly engaged with the carriage channel.
- Figure 11 depicts the ability of the pivot assembly to remain engaged with the carriage channel even when displaced at large angles.
- Figure 12 is an alternative preferred embodiment of the device wherein the loop bracket is replaced by a guide pin to provide means for directional alignment.
- Figure 13 depicts the alternative preferred embodiment of the disclosed device with the guide pin functioning as a lever to assist during insertion of the pivot assembly into the carriage channel.
- Figure 14 is a side view depicting insertion of the pivot assembly into the carriage channel.
- Figure 15 depicts the engaged carriage channel and pivot assembly of figure 14.
- Figure 16 shows the guide pin providing alignment of adjacent pivot assemblies.
- Figure 1 depicts an exploded view of the pivot assembly 12 which has a carriage
- Wheels 20 are
